First, I thank those witnesses who engaged with the terms of the heads of the Bill as members of this committee are required to do. Since the Oireachtas is required to legislate for the X case in accordance with the judgment of the European Court of Human Rights and as the Government has decided to legislate, it is helpful to have submissions that engage with the heads of the Bill, as witnesses were asked to do.
